The "Official English" (OE), or "English Only," movement claims that the United States is threatened by the use of languages other than English in schools, government, and business. The OE movement is contrary to a national tradition of recognition and respect for the contributions of immigrants to American life. Restrictions on multilingualism are based on and foster an atmosphere of intolerance and xenophobia. The language restrictionist movement is based on the assumption...

Although there have been many educated minority and women groups available for positions in higher education, it was not until the pressure of the growing thrust of the civil rights movement in the 1960s did colleges and universities begin to move in the direction of integration. Barriers had to be removed, not just moved. It has been apparent to white administrators in higher education who are trying to comply with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as well as Title VI and Title IX,...

In general, civil rights staff in the Department of Health, Education and Welfare have agreed that Title IV, 1964 Civil Rights Act grants should support Title VI enforcement efforts by providing a carrot of Title IV money to complement the stick of Title VI enforcement. How best to utilize Title IV grants for this purpose, however, has been the subject of continuing disagreement. From the beginning of the program, some officials have argued that local Title IV programs should focus on...

A recent ruling in the Baby Jane Doe case held that as parents are ultimately responsible for a child, and as in this case, the parents were not recipients of Federal assistance, neither they nor the hospital following their instructions to withhold treatment from their handicapped newborn are subject to Federal provisions about discrimination on the basis of handicap (Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation Act). This argument is seriously flawed. Although our laws recognize that children's...

An analysis of the participation of Southern black college students in the civil rights movement is presented. Data analyses are carried out to determine possible relationships between varying patterns of relative deprivation (as measured by Cantril's Self-Anchoring Striving Scale) and passive, active or combative types of participation. The findings show that not all patterns of relative deprivation are associated with participation. For example, aspirational deprivation (defined as a gap...

This thesis seeks to answer: Why has the Army, as an organization, had such a difficult time implementing stability operations? Additionally, this thesis attempts to determine whether the Army made its best...

Language policy in Australia has evolved in three phases, with three kinds of argumentation prevailing in public attitudes. In the first phase (1945 to the mid 1970s), maintenance of the first language by non-English-speaking-background (NESB) immigrants was considered a hindrance to assimilation and educational achievement, and thus abandonment of the first language was encouraged. In the second phase (beginning in the mid-1970s), first language maintenance came to be seen as a right, either...

Both freedom of speech and freedom from discrimination are generally accepted expressions of public policy. The application of these policies, however, leads to conflicts that pose both practical and conceptual problems. This paper presents a review of court litigation and addresses the question of how to reconcile the conflicting societal goals of free speech and freedom from discrimination, considering the limited guidance provided by courts. The following principles emerged from the review...
